@SenBillCassidy Did you teach them all about leading with their conscience by voting in alignment with their political self interest while tweeting about how they disapprove of the easily foreseeable negative consequences of their votes?
Newsflash for Susan Collins and Donald Trump: If cutting taxes for billionaires and corporations were going to deliver prosperity to the working class, it would have happened by now. We see through your lies, and we are going to defeat you.
@acnewsitics Or is she just pissed he left her on the decoy plane? Don’t get me wrong, I want the implosion to be imminent but it never seems to materialize…
Every parent wants to keep their children safe, and vaccines are among the most powerful tools for doing that, making deadly diseases preventable.
@WHO is concerned that recent changes to US immunization policy are not aligned with decades of evidence that show when children are most vulnerable to disease, when vaccines provide the strongest protection, how many doses are needed, and which vaccines can be given together safely.
That evidence is reviewed continuously as new data emerge from across the globe. The current evidence is unequivocal: vaccines - including the MMR vaccine - are safe and do not cause autism.
Delaying vaccines or separating doses unnecessarily does not make vaccination safer and can leave children unprotected.
Global evidence and recommendations, including from @WHO, inform national experts, who consider local disease patterns, health systems and population needs, to determine which vaccines and schedules are best for their country.
Vaccination policy should be guided by rigorous, independent and transparent review of the best available science, not by political influence.
@PressSec@SecKennedy List them. List all 72, with the ages of administration and whether they are recommended or required for school. Whether they are individual shots or combined. And then show me where a baby gets “72 injections,” you lying twat.
@SenBillCassidy You are tweeting into the void but when you had the chance to act, you voted to confirm RFK Jr so don’t think you’re ending up anywhere but the wrong side of history here.
In the US the total routine injections by age 2, is 13.
They are:
Hep B, Valexis (DTaP, IPV, Hib), PCV, Valexis dose 2, PCV dose 2, Vaxelis dose 3, PCV dose 3, PCV booster, MMR(V), Hib booster, Hepatitis A #1, DTaP booster, Hepatitis A #2
In Denmark, by age 2 it is 11 doses because they combine their hepatitis boosters with the MMRV doses.
Even with voluntary inoculations, no child in the US has 72 injections.
The average American who is not diabetic, will take 53~ years to reach 72 injections, assuming they get an annual flu shot.
There also is no blanket “European Standard” of inoculation, it varies by country with Denmark being the lowest because they have approved combination doses.
A child in Denmark still gets all the same vaccines that a US child did before Trump’s proposed changes.
They just think you’re too stupid to look.
@SenBillCassidy I hope in your quietest moments you regret this as much as we know you regret voting to confirm RFK Jr. Trump ran you out of office anyway, but hope whatever you’ve been promised for your next chapter is worth it.
@SenBillCassidy What’s one more spineless confirmation vote for an unqualified person with obvious conflicts of interest, right Senator? Now your legacy can be approving RFK and Blanche while getting fucked out of office by Trump for your loyalty.
.@JamesTalarico: 50 years ago, a corporate lawyer named Lewis Powell circulated a memo around DC — a blueprint for how corporations could amass political power, reverse the gains of the Great Society and the New Deal, and rig the system for themselves.
The Powell memo outlined a strategy. Unite corporate special interests, privilege corporate perspectives in the media, appoint sympathetic judges to the court, and buy politicians in both political parties.
And it worked. Republicans and some Democrats sold the false gospel of trickle-down economics. Trickle-down economics is not a theory, it is theft.
Since the late 1970s, mega donors and corporate special interests have been buying politicians in both political parties. And then those politicians turned around and rigged the economy to benefit their wealthy donors at our expense.
We have an affordability crisis because we have a corruption crisis.
TALARICO: What they're doing in Texas is they are redrawing the lines in the middle of the decade, which is unprecedented. It's like changing the rules after halftime because you're worried the other team is going to win the game. It's cheating.
CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: More politicians should say that
TALARICO: That they're cheating?
CHARLAMAGNE: Yes
